And all the barriers to tears and laughter and all that mixed emotions let loose sitting right under the noses of those larger than life images er umm I mean characters… KANK (Kabhi Alvida Naa Kahna) was an absolute family entertainer… especially the kid with the violin brought back memories of a similar barrier breaking movie a few years back, amazingly with almost the same lead characters and one guest actor from today’s movie… yes of course there were wonderful guest actors in today’s grand party thrown by BigB.
Mentioning BigB – he rocked as always… and he was the “baap of chota bachan in all aspects”… smart, stylish, suave, sensible, sexy, seductive, and superb (fits the mckinsey 7S framework well) and and he really lived his part… and died it too… though for what bloody reason, I have no clue…
SRK does his usual role of a sad doleful faced acting which is turning into a common mimicry dialogues that any tom, dick or harry is doing these days. Preity Zinta tries to appear sexy, but she can do little to fight a losing battle with old age, maybe a little less hair color would suit her better, unless she is hoping for a role in “Legally Blonde-3” (I heard they were going to stick to the truly implied meaning of words this time”). Rani is good especially in that multicolored song that they do, but then I always had a soft corner for her. Chota Bachan needs a shave and a bit of slimming down, or probably it is the sadness in his life that has given him a sleepless bloated faced look… whatever be the case, next to BigB, he seems to be unattractive. Kajol and John Abraham did a great and important role… it was nice to see kajol keeping her eyesight and also her beauty… no comments on John’s musical know how required for DJ-ing.
The movie is an absolutely great value for money – for just 50 bucks I got to sit in an A/c theater for nearly 4hours and the closest to the stars than anybody else, with the maximum leg room. (Had a little neck pain and back strain, but those are small issues.) Had the right moments to stimulate your tear glands (but not before exercising those 15 facial muscles while laughing)… and they summarize the movie at important points to help you remember and even provide an executive summary in the beginning. I was thoroughly happy with the ending (or probably when it ended, can’t be sure).
A very well recommended family entertainer, though the families in the movie are rarely in the “entertained frame of mind”… but the ending is a happy one, and I looovee happy endings… absolutely touching piece of work. Highly recommended for a stressed out MBA breadwinner, coming home to a nagging wife and kid who constantly pester him for a family outing to the theater – it may provide you a permanent solution with just one stroke.
